Lots of coriander with great citrus flavor. Pours dark with good head and lacing. Comes together very nicely, a great mix of a weizenbock with extra coriander the German beer laws wouldn’t normally let fly. Finishes with light sweetness, full palate. Tap at Churchkey.

Draft at Churchkey for a meet the brewer event. Poured a hazy brown color with a small off-white head. Aroma was a wit all the way - lots of wheat, grain, coriander notes. Flavor was, at least for me, pretty distinct dunkel notes - lots of wheat. This was very bold and very enjoyable.

4oz pour at Churchkey’s Nogne O Tap Takeover. Pours a deep, raisiny brown with some spitty, white head. Nose has soap, raisins, mint, wheat, mild clove, a little laundry detergent. Flavor is a little better, sweet, lemon lime soda, raisin, orange, soap, straw, caramel, some breakfast cereal. Basically a full bodied finish. Sounds strange, but I was digging it.

Bottle shared at the Tuesday Night Horal Chugging Tasting - many thanks to Colin. Pours cloudy amber with a tight, off-white froth head. Nose of light lime and bread. Big sweet flavor, very floral, with further lime, bread and yeast. Full bodied with fine, creamy carbonation. Sweet finish with floral bitterness, light dough, more lime. Weird. Tastes nice, but it is odd.

6 month old+ 500ml bottle shared at home. 1st time I had this, I wasn’t really rating, but I remember it being really hoppy on the aroma. This has all gone now, replaced by orange, rosehip, honey, and liquorice. Some light roasted notes, but not a lot. Pours a lovely dark near-black, good off-white head. Light carbonation. On the taste, dark sugars come through at the end, but it’s a confusion of orange and coriander seed at first. Doesn’t taste 10%. Good, but not great.

Bottle. Pours clear dark golden, with a big creamy head. Peculiar sweet aroma with toffee and yeast, as well as a good dose of tutti frutti chewing gum and assorted fruits. Not really bad, but definitely quite weird. Full body, with average carbonation. Flavour is sweet with roasted malts, molasses, raisins and prunes, and with an almost amazingly finish.
